Chapter 234 Senior, I believe you!
"Although Thunder Bamboo is known as one of the three great divine trees in the cultivation world, very few people can actually use it. Unless you're refining a top-tier wood-type magic weapon, who would use it as a material? And for those who understand how to refine such magic weapons, this little bit of Thunder Bamboo is practically useless."

Lin Mo looked at Han Li and then said, "The Heavenly Thunder Bamboo grows extremely slowly, only growing an inch or so every thousand years. Ordinary people simply cannot cultivate it. But I heard from Madam Fan that even knowing this, Fellow Daoist Han still has a great desire for the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo. Therefore, I judge that Fellow Daoist Han not only knows how to cultivate the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, but also has a secret method to make it grow quickly."

"Otherwise, I really can't understand why Fellow Daoist Han would be so eager for it."

Lin Mo looked at Han Li with a half-smile as he spoke.

Han Li's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was already churning with turbulent emotions.

What kind of monster is this man before us? Based on just a few words he exchanged with Madam Fan that day, he not only guessed the true purpose of the Thunder Bamboo, but also deduced that he possessed a method to accelerate the growth of the Thunder Bamboo.

For Han Li, this was naturally something he could not accept.

There was silence in the room.

Lin Mo looked at the silent Han Li and smiled.

"Fellow Daoist Han, there's no need to rush to answer."

As Lin Mo spoke, he took a box out of his pocket and placed it on the table.

Han Li's gaze followed Lin Mo's movements and fell on the box.

The box was neither made of wood nor gold, nor did it seem to be made of jade or similar materials. It was translucent and covered with a faint bluish-green hue.

Seeing Han Li's strange expression, Lin Mo explained to him, "This box is made of something called 'Gaoyu'. Although it has 'jade' in its name, it is not actually jade and is not listed among the Five Elements. Only this thing can preserve the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo for a long time without fear of spiritual energy leakage."

Han Li felt a chill run down his spine. Since he had never heard of "Gaoyu" before, it meant that this thing was extremely rare and must be exceptionally precious.

next moment.

Lin Mo extended a finger and gently touched the lid of the box, which then slowly opened on its own.

Han Li's spirits lifted, and he hurriedly focused his gaze on the box, unable to resist asking, "Is this the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo?"
Inside the box was a short, ordinary piece of withered bamboo, about two inches long and as thick as a little finger, with some noticeably shriveled roots.

No matter how you look at it, it's no different from ordinary bamboo.

Lin Mo saw the doubt in Han Li's heart, but did not explain. He simply flicked his finger, and a burst of energy shot towards the half-yellow and half-green withered bamboo in the box.

Just as the energy was about to hit the withered bamboo, a thin arc of electricity appeared on the surface of the bamboo, deflecting the attack.

"I can honestly say that it's the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, no doubt about it," Lin Mo said.

“Such a treasure is naturally only worthy of you, Senior,” Han Li said.

In fact, Han Li's eyes widened when he saw the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo unleash its electric arc rebound attack.

He knew in his heart that this was the best material for forging the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword.

But no matter how good something is, you still need to be alive to use it.

In Han Li's opinion, the only option was to abandon the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo and find other materials to refine the magic weapon.

"It seems Fellow Daoist Han still doesn't believe me."

Lin Mo raised his hand and waved, closing the treasure box containing the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo again, then flew straight to Han Li.

“I genuinely wish to befriend you, fellow Daoist. If I were coveting your secret method for cultivating Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, with my current cultivation level, I could easily take you down directly. I have no fewer than ten ways to obtain what I desire from your mind. Fellow Daoist, do not underestimate the abilities of a Nascent Soul cultivator.”

The words have not yet fallen.

Han Li felt an invisible pressure enveloping him, as heavy as a mountain and as vast as the sky.

He couldn't even muster the slightest thought of resistance, let alone resist.

"If Fellow Daoist Han believes me, then blink," Lin Mo said.

Han Li felt the invisible pressure on his body growing stronger and stronger, as if it were surging in from all directions. His body was enveloped and squeezed by this pressure, as if it would explode at any moment.

He tried to blink, but found he couldn't.

Fortunately, Lin Mo quickly withdrew his supernatural powers.

With the pressure relieved, Han Li quickly said, "Senior, I believe you!" Lin Mo smiled and said, "I knew Fellow Daoist Han would believe me."

Han Li was panting heavily, with lingering fear in his eyes.

"What do you need me to do, senior?" Han Li asked cautiously.

Lin Mo said, "Like Fellow Daoist Han, I also need Thunder Bamboo. Since Fellow Daoist Han has a method for cultivating Thunder Bamboo, then I will entrust this section of Thunder Bamboo to you to take back. In the future, when you have cultivated enough Thunder Bamboo for a long time and in sufficient quantity, just remember to share some with me."

Is it that simple?!

Han Li was somewhat skeptical.

But the reality is that, whether he believes it or not, he has no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "To be honest, senior, I did obtain a method for cultivating Thunder Bamboo by chance, but whether it will actually work in the end, I don't know."

"I'll say it again, I trust Fellow Daoist Han."

"If Senior has no further instructions, shall I take my leave?" Han Li asked cautiously.

Seeing Lin Mo nod, Han Li put away the Thunder Bamboo on the table, took his leave, and left without looking back.

Even after leaving Lin Mo's house and departing Tianxing City, Han Li was still completely dazed.

The other party actually let him leave so easily?
And he even gave the Thunder Bamboo to himself?
what is happening?
While suspended in mid-air, Han Li pondered for a long time before finally looking at the box containing the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo on his body. Could it be that the other party had tampered with the box?

Thinking of this.

Without the slightest hesitation, Han Li threw the precious box into the sea, no matter how valuable its material was.

The original cave has been exposed, so there's no way to go back.

After losing the treasure box, the spiritual energy of the Thunder Bamboo will continue to dissipate. Therefore, for Han Li, the most urgent task is to find a new cave dwelling as soon as possible.

Han Li kept changing direction at sea. After confirming that no one was following him, he landed on a deserted island, found a small hill, and built a cave.

After simply setting up various formations outside the cave.

Han Li returned to his cave dwelling.

Instead of attending to other matters, he immediately consulted the numerous classic texts he had stored.

The Thunder Bamboo, having lost its treasure box, couldn't wait any longer.

After much difficulty, Han Li found the cultivation method of Thunder Bamboo in a jade slip, and then immediately followed the method to transplant the bamboo into the newly cultivated medicinal field.

Looking at the extremely small and thin Thunder Bamboo that had been transplanted before him, Han Li was extremely excited.

Thunder Bamboo is graded, and the grade of Thunder Bamboo is determined entirely by the number of years it has been imbued with spiritual energy.

The small section of Tianlei bamboo in front of us is definitely no more than five thousand years old.

Thunder bamboo less than two thousand years old can only release ordinary white lightning, while those over five thousand years old release blue lightning with significantly greater power.

When the Thunder Bamboo reaches ten thousand years of age, the lightning will turn into a pale golden color. At this time, the power of the lightning will reach an unimaginable level, and it will have various miraculous effects in restraining all kinds of evil magic and demonic arts. It is called "the lightning that wards off evil" by cultivators.

This is the oldest Thunder Bamboo that can be seen in the cultivation world to date, and it is also the legendary "Golden Thunder Bamboo".

"This kind of Golden Thunder Bamboo" appeared once before in the Chaotic Star Sea. No one could say where it came from, and there was only a small half of it.

As a result, this item caused bloodshed and chaos in the Chaotic Star Sea for decades, with many forces openly and secretly vying for it, and it circulated among countless cultivators.

Ultimately, however, no one was able to preserve it enough to refine it into a magical artifact. This was because the bamboo, just as mysteriously as it appeared, vanished without a trace. This infuriated many powerful forces at the time, and they investigated for a considerable period before the matter gradually subsided.

The above controversies demonstrate the value of this ancient golden bamboo.

Of course, none of these are problems for Han Li, who has the Heavenly Bottle in his possession.

In the days that followed, Han Li used the green liquid to accelerate the growth of the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo while preparing other materials for refining the magic weapon.

The "Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword" not only uses spirit wood as its main ingredient, but also needs to be mixed with some rare auxiliary materials before it can be finally refined using alchemical fire.
